Marte Johnslien

Marte Johnslien (b. 1977) is an artist working with ceramic sculpture, installation, and artist’s books. She is an Associate Professor of Ceramic Art at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts, Department of Art and Craft, and holds a doctoral degree in artistic research from the same department (2020). She leads the artistic research project TiO₂: The Materiality of White. Her artistic investigations involve chemical experimentation with TiO₂ in ceramic processes, archival research, and fieldwork conducted with student participants in the project at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts. Johnslien describes this as a practice of bringing the immaterial colour white back to its earthly origin, to deconstruct the colour white as a symbol of purity, power, and progress.
